About Matrix Matrix is an open protocol for decentralised, secure communications.
Matrix Manifesto We believe:
People should have full control over their own communication. People should not be locked into centralised communication silos, but instead be free to pick who they choose to host their communication without limiting who they can reach. The ability to converse securely and privately is a basic human right. Communication should be available to everyone as a free and open, unencumbered, standard and global network.
Someone needs to hook revolt up to a matrix homeserver. I’m kinda surprised there still isn’t like a discord UI clone matrix client along the lines of how elk.zone is a twitter UI inspired frontend for mastodon. Having not used discord much I’m not sure what’s really missing, maybe it’s just the stricter adherence to spaces on the left bar and the lack of non-current-space-related channels listed above the current space’s channel list.
Tbh I kinda hate how discord works (and how impossible it feels managing being in 30-40 servers and figuring out which server that doot-doot sound came from when at least 10-15 at a minimum have unread badges even 30 seconds after I mark everything everywhere as read), but I do love the look and feel.
Check out cinny.in. I use this on my desktop browser and it looks similar to the Discord UI.
Thanks for mentioning this, looks perfect
